The story

Cady Heron moves with her parents from Kenya to a Chicago suburb and enters high school expecting to find her place. Instead, she encounters classmates wary of anyone different and struggles to be noticed or accepted. Janis Sarkisian and Damian Hubbard step in to help her navigate the school’s social groups, including the clique known as the Plastics.

In the room

A coming-of-age musical framed with direct address and fourth-wall breaking, turning high-school cliques and social rules into a knowingly comic cautionary tale.

Good fit if you like
